It's like you simpletons can only think in one dimension and don't have enough synapses firing to see the cause and effect of whats happening with this situation. The reason why NK is all of the sudden toning down the rhetoric and behaving dovish is precisely because Trump took such a hard line stance against them. It was essentially political jostling to feel each other out.

Now it's impossible to predict what exactly is going to come of this, but to pretend that Trump was just some bumbling buffoon that had no impact on the situation we see today is pure dishonesty.



Derp.

Tariffs make foreign goods more expensive which results in higher business for domestic producers. That means companies with workers here benefit, and as a result those workers/local economies benefit. Of course there are always negatives to tariffs but there are also benefits. Foreign companies will choose to invest capital stock in the US (build factories and their goods here) to avoid the tariffs which once again is good for our domestic economy.

You're full of shit, you know you're full of shit but you continue to peddle your bullshit regardless of reality. This is what i'm referring to as REEE. Crying about something just because it's sponsored by Trump.
.

Economic forecasters predict losing tens of thousands of jobs btw for a net loss, the same thing that happened when you guys did this last time (Bush 2).

Btw

Now what is the REE thing?

You mean kind of what's happening in China or Germany where they have tariffs on some of our goods? Oh wait...they have massive exports, massive production, massive industries.

You keep saying that over and over as if that changes our situation. Like you struggle with object permanence or something. You keep ignoring my other question too.

We are not Germany or China. What is good for them and us are different things. They are socialists and all the sudden you want to emulate their economic systems. Again what is good for them and what is good for us is vastly different.

How many Chinese cars do you see driving around America? Vs ford, Chevy, etc. I think Hyundai might be theirs. Probably not though.

what, like a Ford Focus? Buicks? Cadillacs? Volvos?

I never said I was from, or lived in, the DPRK. In fact I’ve always been open about that.

My father was born and raised there though.

Tariffs are a protectionist policy, not a socialist policy. How many American cars do you see in China or Germany?

Fact is, if we have a trade deficit, we can use tariffs to equalize that. Retaliation will hurt them more than it will us.

You have missed the point. Trump can be criticized for things, and that's good! However, other people in this forum don't acknowledge anything good he has done, but equate us to Trump "cultists", if we defend something he's doing (that we think are right). You can't have the cake and eat it too. It goes both ways

If he doesn't back out of the DPRK meeting like a whiny little cuck I'll be proud of him. If he gets somewhere in the negotiations, I'll say he deserves a Nobel prize. Let's keep an eye on it.

You will be proud of Trump? What a bunch of bologna
